Eugene City Council Joins anti-TPP Efforts

On January 11, 2106 the Eugene City Council unanimously adopted a resolution opposing the Trans Pacific Partnership treaty currently being considered in Congress. City Councilor Claire Syrett sponsored the strongly worded resolution at the request of the Oregon AFL-CIO. Councilor Syrett urged the council to pass the resolution because the TPP represents an assault on workers' rights and environmental protection as well on the authority of local or state governments to adopt regulations design to protect the environment and workers.

EUGENE MAKES PROGRESS HOUSING HOMELESS VETERANS

Operation 365 spearheaded by Eugene Mayor Piercy and City Manager Jon Ruiz has reached its goal of finding permanent housing for over 360 homeless veterans in Eugene. This was the results ofmany months of coordinated effort by policy makers, service providers and property managers to identify ways to get the remaining vets housed. The main challenge is finding single and one bedroom units in our tight rental market. This effort is part of the Housing First model which is now being embraced by federal agencies and others as the most cost-effective and humane way to help homeless people, especially those who have been chronically homeless, get into safe housing and accessing services successfully.
